FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
(standards.iteh.ai)
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
IEC 62053-23:2020
5) IEC itself does not https://standards.iteh.ai/catalog/standards/sist/6fad9515-d62b-47fe-8720-
provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
5ca12a5395f9/iec-62053-23-2020
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 62053-23 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 13:
Electrical energy measurement and control.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2003 and its
amendment 1:2016. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition: see Annex B.
The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting

13/1807A/FDIS 13/1815/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this International Standard can be found in the
report on voting indicated in the above table.
–4– IEC 62053-23:2020 © IEC 2020
This document has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all parts in the IEC 62053 series, published under the general title Electricity metering
equipment – Particular requirements, can be found on the IEC website.
The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the
stability date indicated on the IEC website under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data related to
the specific document. At this date, the document will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.
NOTE The attention of National Committees is drawn to the fact that equipment manufacturers and testing
organizations may need a transitional period following publication of a new, amended or revised IEC publication in
which to make products in accordance with the new requirements and to equip themselves for conducting new or
revised tests.

This part is a standard for type testing electricity meters. It covers the particular requirements
for meters, being used indoors and outdoors in large quantities worldwide. It does not deal with
special implementations (such as metering-part and/or displays in separate housings).
This document is intended to be used in conjunction with IEC 62052-11:2020 and with
IEC 62052-31:2015. When any requirement in this document concerns an item already covered
in IEC 62052-11:2020 or in IEC 62052-31:2015, the requirements of this document take
precedence over the requirements of IEC 62052-11:2020 or of IEC 62052-31:2015.

ELECTRICITY METERING EQUIPMENT –

PARTICULAR REQUIREMENTS –
1 Scope
This part of IEC 62053 applies only to static var-hour meters of accuracy classes 2 and 3 for
the measurement of alternating current electrical reactive energy in 50 Hz or 60 Hz networks
and it applies to their type tests only.
For practical reasons, this document is based on a conventional definition of reactive energy
for sinusoidal currents and voltages containing the fundamental frequency only.
NOTE 1 For other general requirements, such as safety, dependability, etc., see the relevant IEC 62052 or
IEC 62059 standards.
This document applies to electricity metering equipment designed to:
• measure and control electrical energy on electrical networks (mains) with voltage up to
1 000 V;
NOTE 2 For AC electricity meters, the voltage mentioned above is the line-to-neutral voltage derived from nominal
(standards.iteh.ai)
voltages. See IEC 62052-31:2015, Table 7.
• have all functional elements, including add-on modules, enclosed in, or forming a single
meter case with exception of indicating displays;
IEC 62053-23:2020
•
operate with integrated or detached indicating displays, or without an indicating display;
5ca12a5395f9/iec-62053-23-2020
• be installed in a specified matching socket or rack;
• optionally, provide additional functions other than those for measurement of electrical
energy.
Meters designed for operation with low power instrument transformers (LPITs as defined in the
IEC 61869 series) may be considered as compliant with this document only if such meters and
their LPITs are tested together and meet the requirements for directly connected meters.
NOTE 3 Modern electricity meters typically contain additional functions such as measurement of voltage magnitude,
current magnitude, power, frequency, power factor, etc.; measurement of power quality parameters; load control
functions; delivery, time, test, accounting, recording functions; data communication interfaces and associated data
security functions. The relevant standards for these functions may apply in addition to the requirements of this
document. However, the requirements for such functions are outside the scope of this document.
NOTE 4 Product requirements for power metering and monitoring devices (PMDs) and measurement functions such
as voltage magnitude, current magnitude, power, frequency, etc., are covered in IEC 61557-12. However, devices
compliant with IEC 61557-12 are not intended to be used as billing meters unless they are also compliant with
IEC 62052-11:2020 and one or more relevant IEC 62053-xx accuracy class standards.
NOTE 5 Product requirements for power quality instruments (PQIs) are covered in IEC 62586-1. Requirements for
power quality measurement techniques (functions) are covered in IEC 61000-4-30. Requirements for testing of the
power quality measurement functions are covered in IEC 62586-2.
This document does not apply to:
• meters for which the voltage line-to-neutral derived from nominal voltages exceeds 1 000 V;
• meters intended for connection with low power instrument transformers (LPITs as defined
in the IEC 61869 series) when tested without such transformers;
• metering systems comprising multiple devices (except LPITs) physically remote from one
another;
–8– IEC 62053-23:2020 © IEC 2020
• portable meters;
NOTE 6 Portable meters are meters that are not permanently connected.
• meters used in rolling stock, vehicles, ships and airplanes;

• laboratory and meter test equipment;
• reference standard meters;
• data interfaces to the register of the meter;
• matching sockets or racks used for installation of electricity metering equipment;
• any additional functions provided in electrical energy meters.
This document does not cover measures for the detection and prevention of fraudulent attempts
to compromise a meter’s performance (tampering).
NOTE 7 Nevertheless, specific tampering detection and prevention requirements, and test methods, as relevant for
a particular market are subject to the agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser.
NOTE 8 Specifying requirements and test methods for fraud detection and prevention would be counterproductive,
as such specifications would provide guidance for potential fraudsters.
NOTE 9 There are many types of meter tampering reported from various markets; therefore, designing meters to
detect and prevent all types of tampering could lead to unjustified increase in costs of meter design, verification and
validation.
NOTE 10 Billing systems, such as, smart metering systems, are capable of detecting irregular consumption patterns
and irregular network losses which enable discovery of suspected meter tampering.
NOTE 11 For transformer operated meters paired with current transformers (CTs) according to IEC 61869-2:
– (standards.iteh.ai)
the standard CT measuring range is specified from 0,05 I n to I max for accuracy classes 0,1, 0,2, 0,5 and 1 and
these CTs are used for meters of class 2 and 3 according to this document;
– the special CT measuring range is specified IEC from62053-23:2020
0,01 I n to I max for accuracy classes 0,2S and 0,5 S and these
CTs are used for meters of class 0,5 S and 1 S according to IEC 62053-24;
–
5ca12a5395f9/iec-62053-23-2020
combinations of standard CTs and meters of class 0,5 S and 1 S are subject to an agreement between
manufacturers and purchasers.
NOTE 12 This document does not specify emission requirements, these are specified in IEC 62052-11:2020, 9.3.14.
